Yeah I'm in the spirit this year, so I scribbled up some up some UFF Pride cuteness. By then, the polycule is in full force, along with their obligatory ace friend/brother. Don't really have much else to say about this one other than they're cute and in love lmao
(btw, if it isn't self-explainatory, Dipper, Paz, and Connie are all bi/poly, Steven and Mabel are pan/poly, and Stonemason is Ace/Aro. And before any of ya'll ask, no there's no fucking incest in the polycule, get the fuck out of here and stop asking stupid questions).
(Normal/non fucking eyesore version under the cut)
Heheheheeh time for me to finally revisit what's probably my favorite episode of Gravity Falls (and a really good chapter in old UF too). This cover was a LABOR (those backgrounds alone were BRUTAL to do) but well worth it since this chapter is such an important one. Really proud of this one, and very much looking forward to writing this chapter... after I get back from my big Japan trip (which I'm leaving for in exactly a week woo boy)
Another commission complete! This one is for @cartoons4ever77, who asked for some UFF MK prom designs! These were pretty fun to draw, but someone really oughta help that poor kid in the middle, he seems strangely sad for some reason...
Oh shit time for one of those AU HC dumps, one that I’ve been fucking meaning to type out for a damn long time, ever since I came up with ideas for it on the UF Discord ages ago (I swear we spend 99% of our time talking about Stedip over there). Anyway, I came up with a fun lil idea to make a royal/medieval AU based around our favorite ship between our two favorite boys, hence this bundle of cuteness right here. Its mostly fluffy adorable junk for a change which is surprising given my usual penchant for angst, but i can’t resist when it comes to Stedip. So here we go:
Basic gist of this AU is that its more or less the same only everything’s set in a fantasy/medieval/fairy tale sort of setting, with royalty, knights, magic, all that good stuff
So we have our main kingdom, Gravity Falls, which, in an interesting twist of things (because I wanted a prince/knight dynamic for this AU) is well ruled by the Pines family
More specifically its gonna be ruled by Dipper when he comes of age (the parents are dead, cause idk they gotta be for this to work, Mabel is still the oldest twin, but the kingdom’s got this “firstborn son” ruler rule so yeah, and Stan and Ford are sorta more in a supervisory role (basically taking care of things until Dipper’s old enough (which will probs be like 16, but in this AU everyone’s still the same age as usual so he’s 12)
So Dipper and Mabel are prince and princess of the kingdom respectively, but their personalities are more or less the same (Dipper’s still a fuckin nerd who would rather spend his time investigating all the weird magical shit around the kingdom than carrying out any sort of royal duty while Mabel is all about the glitz and glamor and fancy balls and dresses that come with being a princess lol)
Before moving on, one more quick thing on the Pines: Ford’s like... the court magician/researcher (co intrium ruler with Stan too) and Stan’s still kinda like a showman in dealing with the people of the kingdom lol
So the Crystal Gems here are basically the same as usual, still magical aliens and whatnot who have basically lived in the kingdom for ages and have vowed to protect it (and its royal family) from harm
So of course, they’re on great terms with the Pines and Rose usually acts as their head knight for the king or whatever, but since she gave up her form to have a kid with Greg (who here is like, a court minstrel/musician or something), that role is to fall to Steven instead
So the Gems train Steven and Connie to both serve as knights to the royal family (Connie’s parents have some apprehension about this, but imo the girl is way too headstrong to not train to be a knight lol)
When the pair is finally deemed “ready” enough, the CGs present them to the royal family so they can properly serve the prince and princess; of course Mabel’s excited about having what she initially thinks will be a ‘strong handsome knight” all her own, but Dipper, being eternally stubborn, doesn’t think he needs a knight to watch over him all the time
Of course he quickly changes his tune when he meets Steven (whose assigned to him) for the first time and its like... goddamn love and first sight on both ends and these boys are bashful and blushy as hell and its CUTE and GAY
At the same time, Connie’s assigned to serve as Mabel’s knight and Mabel is fucking HYPE when she meets Connie, cause like??? A guy knight is one thing, but a girl knight is even COOLER! So they hit it off just as well lol (did I mention there’s Conbel in here too? Cause there is ;P)
So yeah the twins both immediately love their new knights and spend a ton of time with them and imo what else happens when you get all four Mystery Kids together than they get themselves into fucking trouble
Instead of attending to any sort of royal duties, they basically go hang out in the woods, finding magical creatures and stuff and being kids and having fun and falling in love and stuff
Of course, they kinda do catch some flack from the adults from this, for a number of reasons (mainly the twins gotta do royal stuff and not fool around with their knights while Steven and Connie gotta actually, ya know, be knights and not friends/lovers to the twins lol)
Still, that doesn’t fucking stop them
See, Steven’s great at the “protect” part of being a knight, but not so great at the “attack” part so when Dipper notices this he’s like “well why don’t I learn how to fight so we can protect each other?” and he basically has Connie teach him how to swordfight (without Stan or Ford or any of the Gems finding out lol)
On the other end of things, Mabel probably teaches Connie (who’s kinda a little uptight in this AU because of her strict training) how to cut loose and have fun lol (Steven basically does the same thing for Dipper, who’s all beleaguered thanks to being a prince and whatnot)
So its all cute and good and gay and eventually Stan, Ford, and the Gems come around and let the kids have their fun and relationships just as long as they attend to their responsibilities and stuff
As for other stuff in this AU, I suppose Bill and Homeworld would still be threats, probably in not too dissimilar of a way as they are in UF itself
And imo that’s about all I got in mind for this one at the moment but I kinda wanna write or draw somethin for it eventually cause I’m garbage for this ship and can’t resist it
If you have something you wanna add onto this one, feel free to ^_^
